Spring Makeup trends 2012

3/28/12 4:32 PM

This Spring, pastel colors are very popular and one makeup trend that is being seen is not only pastel eye shadows, but pastel eyeliners as well.

Sweeping color over your black eye liner is a great way to add a pop of color to your makeup so that you can achieve a more 'playful' look.

Eye shadows that go with this liner include copper, champagne and bronze. Although these colors may help highlight the eye, it may not even be needed with the pastel shade over the liner.

For a great daytime look, add a small swipe of eyeliner with a light pink shade over it and for a dramatic look, add a bright green, almost cucumber shade, so that you can really draw the attention to your eyes.

Cosmetics in 2011

1/14/11 8:39 AM

Cosmetics have been earning record revenues and have become a large part of the economy with niche products making a huge impact.

Despite the slow economy and recent recession, the cosmetic industry made nearly $10 billion in 13,000 beauty-centered stores nationwide. One sector that is becoming big in the market, is the men's grooming sector. In 2009, Americans spent $4.8 million on men's products for cosmetic use and grooming.

Another factor that has been apparent during the recession is brand loyalty. People are willing to spend a little more for products that they have been wearing for a long time or that they know will work well for them.

In some skin care products, harmful chemicals are slipped in that can damage the skin, such as mercury and dioxane. In order to catch things like this from coming up, read the back of the product label to make sure that non-natural ingredients are not being applied to your skin.

There are natural and unnatural versions of most make-up so carefully read the ingredient list to stray away from this.
